Amount Requested:

600$ -> €

Synopsis

comprehensive lexicon-like tutorial

Benefits to the Perl Community

It will become easy to learn Perl6, because this way people can easily grab
the bits they want to learn now about Perl 6. Once ready it may become also
a communication channel with people not so involved into perl 6 (p6l readers).

Deliverables

8-10 larger Pages in the TPF perl 6 Wiki. See german Version for comparsion,
that is more than half ready.
(http://wiki.perl-community.de/bin/view/Wissensbasis/PerlTafel)

Project Details

Synopses are large not always easy to read. what we need is an indexed
and crosslinked set of wiki pages, where every info hast its place and is
explained in short but plain language.

The reading requires some basic programming skills but could be done even
without any Perl knowledge if you smart enough.

Yeah, its almost same as last year, except I now know more about Perl 6.
the idea isn't that new but I just time to update and enlarge the German
version bit, but this is about the English version. Some pages i would just
have to translate but some aren't still written.

Inch-stones

are the single pages, even chapter could be counted as millimeters. :)

Project Schedule

2,3 days/page, more for the last ones. Begin i could now even after
Perl-Workshop there will be bit more time for me.

Bio

Herbert Breunung, with moritz probably the German guy who knows most about
perl 6. I'm involved since some times and wrote a series of more novel like
tutorial, gave some talks about that stuff so i already chewed many bits
through (p6 you don't learn in a day).
my dedication for perl 6 since 2 years shows that i am serious about it.
